Relief Teacher

If you’re a passionate educator who values relationships, adaptability, and creating engaging learning environments where students feel known and supported, Carey Baptist College would love to hear from you.

We are now welcoming Expressions of Interest for Relief Teachers to join our Harrisdale Primary Relief Pool.

Relief Teachers play a vital role in the life of our school community, providing continuity of learning, calm leadership, and meaningful connection for students and staff across our Primary School.

This is flexible, casual work suited to educators who enjoy variety, thrive in dynamic environments, and are passionate about creating positive classroom experiences that support both learning and wellbeing.

Whether stepping into a classroom for a single day or supporting longer-term cover arrangements, Relief Teachers at Carey are trusted to create safe, engaging, and student-centred learning environments where students can continue to flourish.

At Carey, teaching is deeply relational.

Our Relief Teachers are more than classroom supervisors. They are educators who bring consistency, encouragement, and professionalism into classrooms while building positive relationships with students and staff alike.

The right person will bring warmth, confidence, flexibility, and the ability to quickly establish calm, respectful, and engaging learning environments across a variety of year levels and settings.

We’re seeking teachers who:

• Have a genuine Christian faith and commitment to Carey’s mission and values
• Hold current TRBWA registration

• Are adaptable, organised, and confident stepping into new classroom settings
• Work collaboratively and communicate effectively with staff and students
• Value student wellbeing alongside academic growth
• Embody Carey’s values of Kindness, Courage, Respect, Humility, and Integrity

Graduate teachers, experienced educators, and teachers returning to the profession are all encouraged to apply.

• Delivering planned learning experiences across a range of Primary year levels
• Maintaining calm, positive, and productive classroom environments
• Supporting student engagement, participation, and wellbeing throughout the school day
• Building positive and respectful relationships with students and colleagues
• Following lesson plans and school procedures confidently and professionally
• Providing clear communication and handover notes to classroom teachers
• Contributing positively to the wider school community during relief engagements

Carey Baptist College is a Christ-centred community committed to whole-person education. Our values of Kindness, Courage, Respect, Humility, and Integrity shape how we teach, work, and care for one another.

At Harrisdale Primary, you’ll join a welcoming and supportive community where relationships matter, staff are genuinely valued, and every classroom interaction has the opportunity to shape a student’s day for the better.

• Flexible casual relief opportunities within Harrisdale Primary
• Meaningful work supporting students within a vibrant school community
• A collaborative and welcoming staff culture
